You could try the .split method. Assuming here that the string is in a
variable, just use variableName.split("&") - assuming that & is the deliimiter
you want to use. Since this uses the .split java method, you can use multiple
characters as a delimiter. You can also use a CFLib function which you may find
easier to use:
